What's ionic bonding

1 answer:

8 0

Ionic bonding is bonding between a metal and a nonmetal, in short. For example, NaCl (table salt, Sodium Chloride) is an ionic bond. This is because Sodium is a metal while Chlorine is a nonmetal, making this an ionic bond. Hope this helps and have a great day!

Benzene and alkyl-substituted benzenes can be hydroxylated by reaction with H2O2 in the presence of an acidic catalyst. What is

Yuri [45]

Answer:

The electrophile is the hydroxide free radical

Explanation:

The hydroxylation of benzene and benzene derivatives using hydrogen peroxide proceeds in the presence of an acidic catalyst. The electrophile in this reaction is the hydroxyl free radical generated in an initial step of the reaction.

This is actually a free radical reaction. The hydroxyl radical previously generated reacts with the benzene ring to yield a radical that undergoes further rearrangement to yield the product phenol. The intermediate, shown as part of this reaction mechanism (refer to image attached) is a specie in which the odd electron is delocalized over the entire benzene ring. Loss of a proton completes the reaction mechanism yielding the corresponding phenol.
